You could do that. Or you could use mod_log_spread:

http://www.backhand.org/mod_log_spread/

This makes use of the multicast spread toolkit to allow you to log
messages to remote servers. The mechanics of it I leave to you as they
aren't hugely simple.

Alternatively, make Apache log to a remote syslog host which combines
the logs for you. This could easily be *both* of your realservers
logging to each other, and again I leave the mechanics of it to you.
Note that this will not scale up or out very far, but for a two-node
solution it's perfect IMO.
